So, on my day off on firday I went to the orphanage. I went in looking for my little friend, Hanan...the one seen in the picture below. When I found him he was in some ladies arms he made eye contact with me and raised his arms up for me to hold him. So I picked him up and played with him and fed him. I tried to set him down a few other times, but he would scream and cry and I'd pick him up again and he'd stop. haha. He wasnt such a slow eater that day it seemed that he was quite hungry. I spoke with one of the nuns at the orphanage, it turns out that Hanan is actually 12 months old. He was taken from his mother because she has tuberculosis, and they are unsure if is or isnt HIV positive. So I do take caution when playing with him. Its always a good time going and helping out. I plan on making a weekly visit to go and play and hlep, these kids are so much fun and I adore all of them. I hope all is well with everybody! Djibouti remains to smell like crap at night! Take it easy!
Peace!
